Overview: Cà phê (coffee), cà phê phin (coffee filter), atisô (artichoke), xi nê ma (cinema), căng tin (canteen), xi-măng (cement), ghế tô nê (Thonet chair): In the Vietnamese language, many words and names of everyday objects clearly show their French origins.Through cultural anthropology, epistemology of Vietnamese design, and the sociology of objects, the research project Objets vietnamiens analyzes the production of objects in Vietnam in the light of French colonization and decolonization.By means of reports, interviews, and research in various archival collections, the book reveals the mechanisms through which objects, foods, materials, and expertise became integrated into Vietnam to the point that they now display authentically Vietnamese characteristics.Through the prism of design and applied arts, Quang Vinh Nguyen and Émilie Laystary take a decolonial and critical look at the creativity and adaptability of a country that has managed to appropriate the techniques of a dominant power. The resulting research work also becomes an archive of the present and provides insight into everyday life in Vietnam then and now.

Absolutely brilliant. It strikes a perfect harmony of dialogue and world-building. Every chapter felt necessary. I am now a lifelong fan of this author.

I thoroughly enjoyed the elegance of it. It held my rapt attention, even when certain twists were telegraphed. A wonderful companion for a quiet weekend.

It was adequate. The tempo was somewhat languid, and I found my mind wandering. Not poor, simply average. Perhaps more aligned with a different audience's tastes.

Honestly one of the most premium reading experiences lately. I became deeply invested in the protagonist's journey. A masterclass in storytelling. An absolute must-read for connoisseurs of the genre.
